JoVE "Film Your Research" Contest

From protocol database JoVE, Journal of Visualized Experiments.

“Calling all science researchers!! Join JoVE’s first-ever “Film Your Research” video contest for the chance to win up to $3000!!!

This contest is an effort to get scientists connected with the concept of “visual science” by making a 2-minute video featuring yourself or a lab member performing a scientific experiment/technique in the lab or in the field. Four lucky entrants will win big cash prizes, as well as bragging rights, for the most creative videos.”

Ends on June 15, 2017

Access to JoVE

New access to JoVE: Journal of Visualized Experiments

The Kresge Library is pleased to announce access to three sections of JoVE, the Journal of Visualized Experiments.

 JoVE is a protocol resource that shows you experimental techniques through videos instead of simply reading about them. The visual format can help increase reproducibility and cut down on the time it takes to learn new experimental procedures. Each video normally includes step-by-step instructions, a demo of equipment and reagents and a discussion of possible issues and modifications.

• JoVE Biology is a diverse section which includes cellular biochemistry, physical biology, genetics, physiology, systems biology, molecular biology, organismal biology and eukaryotic and prokaryotic model systems
• JoVE Neuroscience is a multidisciplinary section whose primary emphasis is methods and techniques related to the structure, function, physiology and pathophysiology of the brain and nervous systems
• JoVE Immunology and Infection is on trial access through 2016. Techniques deal with pathogens and therapeutic agents and range from the molecular to the organism level.

Videos are authored by scientists like you. Currently we have 7 authors from TSRI who have authored JoVE videos. Other videos come from Harvard, Cornell, UCSD, Johns Hopkins, NIH and MIT among a long list of contributors. JoVE is indexed by PubMed, SciFinder and Scopus.

We hope you find this beneficial to your research and the Library would love to hear any comments you have about this resource.

JoVE Trial Extended Until May 6th

JoVE Trial Extended Until April 27th

The Library's trial to the Journal of Visualized Experiments (JoVE) has been extended until April 27th! Check it out and send any feedback to the library.

Free Trial to JoVE, the Journal of Visualized Experiments

Check out the two week trial to JoVE, a video protocols journal. The "Journal of Visualized Experiments (JoVE) is a peer reviewed, PubMed indexed journal devoted to the publication of physical, chemical, medical and life science research in a video format." JoVE aims to make learning protocols easier and save researchers time. The typical JoVE entry contains a video and a written description of the protocol.
